True. Though I’m referring to the Catholic Church here because I believe Avril Lavigne was raised Catholic and unless I see otherwise I’m going to assume she’s still Catholic. But yes, there are Protestant denominations that go more with the definition you used. But even then, to be Christian, you have to accept…

PAs I said, if you’ve been baptized and confirmed, but don’t attend much as an adult, it does kinda get fuzzy.

I hear that, Brother.

Agree there is a cultural Judeo-Christian thing going on in he US. But in the eyes of the Catholic Church, and most churches, if you aren’t a baptized, confirmed practicing Catholic, you aren’t Catholic. Doesn’t matter if your parents or grandparents were. There definitely isn’t a racial component to it, which was…

I don’t think you understand how Christianity works. Unlike Judaism, it doesn’t have a racial/ethnic component to it. You either practice Christianity and are a Christian or you don’t and you aren’t*. Being White has nothing to do with it.

Saw the remastered Phantasm a time a film festival a few years ago. It held up really well for late 70s low budget, BOY!

Her opinion is suspect because you don’t agree with it? She’s allowed not to like it for any reason she wants.  

I don’t get the Oculus shade in the review. The author certainly doesn’t have to like it, but it was a pretty well received movie.

Sorry, if Severino and Happ had pitched well. I don’t know if it’s just my iPad, but posting on here can get some really weird autofills.

Sure. YMMV, but my thoughts if I were to watch the movie:

Boone probably didn’t handle the pitching ideally. Yankees are probably a little too reliant on home runs. Stanton did look awful that last at bat. But if Happ and Severino hadn’t pitched well and Nathan Eovaldi had remembered he’s Nathan Eovaldi 4th starter not Nathan Eovaldi Ace, it’s WEEI talking about the Sawx’ …

Great. Unnecessary stunt casting BS not nearly as clever as they think it is. My interest in the movie just dropped about 95%*.

Lindsey Graham is a Senator, not a member of the administration. You know, the whole Executive/Legislative branch thing.

Don’t get me started on the Australian invasion of Hollywood.

Don’t forget he’s throwing from like 30 feet up.  Allows for a little more carry

I didn’t say it was the same. Just that he didn’t get off as easily as some think.

I dunno.  Being publically called out and humiliated and having a large portion of the online community thinking he’s an abusive rapist isn’t nothing.  

Should he have been stripped of his family and money?

I’m not going to pretend to know what happened between Ms. Dykstra and Mr. Hardwick. And I certainly feel badly for her being attacked online enough to consider suicide. But while he’s not completely unemployed or in jail, I don’t agree that he has suffered no consequences. I guarantee there are plenty of people on…

The best time to wear a striped sweater is all the time.
